Sounds like he's going to have problems with the long ball because of his style, but you still gotta like those 11 K's and only 2 walks.

Not to bad considering he gave up 2 ER in the first.

Keep it up BMac.

McCarthy's final line:
6.2 4 ER 4 hits 11 K's and 2 BBs with 2 HRs allowed

According to the box score, the wind was blowing straight out to LF at 12 MPH. I suspect this contributed to the power display, since the Knights hit 5 HR! While Durham hit 3 HR in the game, they also K'ed 18 times!

Malone actually was pretty solid, especially when you consider it was his first start is a damn long time. 3 IP, 0 ER (2 unearned runs), 3 H, 0 BB, 2 K.
